Peaceful and beautiful! Fall asleep to the sound of the river. The kitchen is well-equipped and functional, and the lounge gave us plenty of room to spread out. We had access to a beautiful private garden as well. Note that there are very few services in Canonbie-the closest grocery stores are in Gretna.

Stunning location and lovely comfy property. Owners very welcoming. Some lovely walks right from the front door. Lots of wildlife and we were lucky to get the northern lights while we were there. Would love to return some day, and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to get away from it all,

Fantastic short break location

The Stables was very well equipes, clean and tidy. Had we been at a warmer time of year, we would have made more use of the gardens. Great location for walking. Would recommend to anyone wanting to get away for a few days
